I hope this post is at least 10 years old because it is such a powerful example of 2010s millennial humour

Ah, that sounds correct to me.

My interpretation is probably distorted by having worked at big companies that have arms in basically every part of software development so there is no side project programming that is “out of scope” there.

But working at a company with a narrower focus would let you moonlight more freely.

Salaried american software developer here. While some large companies have moonlighting carve outs, by and large the rights to any of your work done outside working hours is at the employer’s discretion.

(I call out salaried because I think those clauses can vary depending on the structure of your employment)

I am begging you to stop gooning

Check back in a few years on this one, obergefell is in the crosshairs

100% agreed. The fact that it’s possible to deport someone who has lived in America for decades just for getting laid off is absurdly cruel.

Definitely seems like they want the layoff from my position in the industry.

The tech megagiants are massively reallocating their budgets from “paying people for new product development” to datacenter build-outs, under the belief that AI will fundamentally restructure all knowledge work into property you can own and extract rent from.

Unfortunately the industry is completely non union and a good chunk of employees are on H1B or TN visas where they will get deported if they get fired. That really puts a damper on wanting to rock the boat.

Expect things to get less stable and shittier over time as this trend continues.

Kroger also does that :(

I’m holding out some hope, since twitch is live but YouTube is pre-buffered, but they could still block loading past the ad on a timer or a key computed from hashing the decoded frames of the ad, idk

Not to sell out my community but I know quite a few people whose condom use went down after they got on PrEP

I agree and am also not hopeful given how the courts have been acting.

Why couldn’t Biden have gotten the fun kind of dementia instead of the Everywhere at the End of Time kind of dementia

I’m glad we’re in agreement

Well now Biden can kill them, officially
